Just wanted to leave a little feedback regarding the fonts. Very cool feature. At first, I thought something was wrong with my program/system after connecting...LOL...

I can definitely see some neat uses for this. Think C64-style graphics. :)

This reply is a little out of context, so I'll provide some insight for others:
Vertrauen is now sending and activating alternate fonts when SyncTERM is used to connect (and is running in 80x25 SDL mode). It's really just a proof of concept and the tip of the iceberg of what's possible with alternate fonts.

Very cool! I'll have to download a recent SyncTERM and see it.

Also wanted to add a congratulations on your 1.0 release! You've done
some very nice work over the years.

I have posted this question in another area, but might as well post again, I see where this can be loaded in one of the login/logon scripts, but my system cannot find VERT.FNT, nor can I find it in CVS, or anywhere else. Is this an option just available on Vertruen at the moment?

I'm not using the VERT.FNT file currently. What I've done is create a new "Online Program" in SCFG->External Programs->Online Programs (Doors)->Main, called "Load Fonts":
with a command-line of "?loadfont -A2 gothical.f16 -A1 digital.f16 -A3 computer.f16" and set to execute on event "Logon, Only".

This only works with SyncTERM, in SDL 80x25 mode (the default).
